1. Introduction
The Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) is a variant of
Schnorr's signature system with Twisted Edwards curves. EdDSA needs
to be instantiated with certain parameters and this document describe
Ed25519 - an instantiation of EdDSA in a curve over GF(2^255-19). To
facilitate adoption in the Internet community of Ed25519, this
document describe the signature scheme in an implementation-oriented
way, and we provide sample code and test vectors.
The advantages with EdDSA and Ed25519 include:
1. High-performance on a variety of platforms.
2. Does not require the use of a unique random number for each
signature.
Josefsson & Moeller Expires August 26, 2015 [Page 2]
Internet-Draft EdDSA & Ed25519 February 2015
3. More resilient to side-channel attacks.
4. Small public keys (32 bytes) and signatures (64 bytes).
5. The formulas are "strongly unified", i.e., they are valid for all
points on the curve, with no exceptions. This obviates the need
for EdDSA to perform expensive point validation on untrusted
public values.
6. Collision resilience, meaning that hash-function collisions do
not break this system.
For further background, see the original EdDSA paper [EDDSA].
2. Notation
The following notation is used throughout the document:
GF(p) finite field with p elements
x^y x multiplied by itself y times
B generator of the group or subgroup of interest
n B B added to itself n times.
h_i the i'th bit of h
a || b (bit-)string a concatenated with (bit-)string b
3. Background
EdDSA is defined using an elliptic curve over GF(p) of the form
-x^2 + y^2 = 1 + d x^2 y^2
In general, p could be a prime power, but it is usually chosen as a
prime number. It is required that p = 1 modulo 4 (which implies that
-1 is a square modulo p) and that d is a non-square modulo p. For
Ed25519, the curve used is equivalent to Curve25519 [CURVE25519],
under a change of coordinates, which means that the difficulty of the
discrete logarithm problem is the same as for Curve25519.
Points on this curve form a group under addition, (x3, y3) = (x1, y1)
+ (x2, y2), with the formulas
Josefsson & Moeller Expires August 26, 2015 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft EdDSA & Ed25519 February 2015
x1 y2 + x2 y1 y1 y2 + x1 x2
x3 = -------------------, y3 = -------------------
1 + d x1 x2 y1 y2 1 - d x1 x2 y1 y2
The neutral element in the group is (0, 1).
Unlike manyy other curves used for cryptographic applications, these
formulas are "strongly unified": they are valid for all points on the
curve, with no exceptions. In particular, the denominators are non-
zero for all input points.
There are more efficient formulas, which are still strongly unified,
which use homogeneous coordinates to avoid the expensive modulo p
inversions. See [Faster-ECC] and [Edwards-revisited].
4. EdDSA
EdDSA is a digital signature system with several parameters. The
generic EdDSA digital signature system is normally not implemented
directly, but instead a particular instance of EdDSA (like Ed25519)
is implemented. A precise explanation of the generic EdDSA is thus
not particulary useful for implementers, but for background and
completeness, a succint description of the generic EdDSA algorithm is
given here.
EdDSA has seven parameters:
1. an integer b >= 10.
2. a cryptographic hash function H producing 2b-bit outputs.
3. a prime power p congruent to 1 modulo 4.
4. a (b-1)-bit encoding of elements of the finite field GF(p).
5. a non-square element d of GF(p)
6. an element B != (0,1) of the set E = { (x,y) is a member of GF(p)
x GF(p) such that -x^2 + y^2 = 1 + dx^2y^2 }.
7. a prime q, of size b-3 bits, such that qB = (0, 1), i.e., q is
the order of B or a multiple thereof.
4.1. Encoding
An element (x,y) of E is encoded as a b-bit string called ENC(x,y)
which is the (b-1)-bit encoding of y concatenated with one bit that
is 1 if x is negative and 0 if x is not negative. Negative elements
Josefsson & Moeller Expires August 26, 2015 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft EdDSA & Ed25519 February 2015
of GF(q) are those x which the (b-1)-bit encoding of x is
lexicographically larger than the (b-1)-bit encoding of -x.
4.2. Keys
An EdDSA secret key is a b-bit string k. Let the hash H(k) = (h_0,
h_1, ..., h_(2b-1)) determine an integer a which is 2^(b-2) plus the
sum of m = 2^i * h_i for all i equal or larger than 3 and equal to or
less than b-3 such that m is a member of the set { 2^(b-2), 2^(b-2) +
8, ..., 2^(b-1) - 8 }. The EdDSA public key is ENC(A) = ENC(aB).
The bits h_b, ..., h_(2b-1) is used below during signing.
4.3. Sign
The signature of a message M under a secret key k is the 2b-bit
string ENC(R) || ENC'(S), where ENC'(S) is defined as the b-bit
little-endian encoding of S. R and S are derived as follows. First
define r = H(h_b, ... h_(2b-1)), M) interpreting 2b-bit strings in
little-endian form as integers in {0, 1, ..., 2^(2b)-1}. Let R=rB
and S=(r+H(ENC(R) || ENC(A) || M)a) mod l.
4.4. Verify
To verify a signature ENC(R) || ENC'(S) on a message M under a public
key ENC(A), proceed as follows. Parse the inputs so that A and R is
an element of E, and S is a member of the set {0, 1, ..., l-1 }.
Compute H' = H(ENC(R) || ENC(A) || M) and check the group equation
8SB = 8R + 8H'A in E. Verification is rejected if parsing fails or
the group equation does not hold.
5. Ed25519
Theoretically, Ed25519 is EdDSA instantiated with b=256, H being
SHA-512 [RFC4634], p is the prime 2^255-19, the 255-bit encoding of
GF(2^255-19) being the little-endian encoding of {0, 1, ...,
2^255-20}, q is the prime 2^252 + 0x14def9dea2f79cd65812631a5cf5d3ed,
d = -121665/121666 which is a member of GF(p), and B is the unique
point (x, 4/5) in E for which x is "positive", which with the
encoding used simply means that the least significant bit of x is 0.
The curve p, prime q, d and B follows from [I-D.irtf-cfrg-curves].
Written out explicitly, B is the point (15112221349535400772501151409
588531511454012693041857206046113283949847762202, 4631683569492647816

5.1. Modular arithmetic
For advise on how to implement arithmetic modulo p = 2^255 - 1
efficiently and securely, see Curve25519 [CURVE25519]. For inversion
modulo p, it is recommended to use the identity x^-1 = x^(p-2) (mod
p).
For point decoding or "decompression", square roots modulo p are
needed. They can be computed using the Tonelli-Shanks algorithm, or
the special case for p = 5 (mod 8). To find a square root of a,
first compute the candidate root x = a^((p+3)/8) (mod p). Then there
are three cases:
x^2 = a (mod p). Then x is a square root.
x^2 = -a (mod p). Then 2^((p-1)/4) x is a square root.
a is not a square modulo p.
5.2. Encoding
All values are coded as octet strings, and integers are coded using
little endian convention. I.e., a 32-octet string h h[0],...h[31]
represents the integer h[0] + 2^8 h[1] + ... + 2^248 h[31].
A curve point (x,y), with coordiantes in the range 0 <= x,y < p, is
coded as follows. First encode the y-coordinate as a little-endian
string of 32 octets. The most significant bit of the final octet is
always zero. To form the encoding of the point, copy the least
significant bit of the x-coordinate to the most significant bit of
the final octet.
5.3. Decoding
Decoding a point, given as a 32-octet string, is a little more
complicated.
1. First interpret the string as an integer in little-endian
representation. Bit 255 of this number is the least significant
bit of the x-coordinate, and denote this value x_0. The
y-coordinate is recovered simply by clearing this bit. If the
resulting value is >= p, decoding fails.
2. To recover the x coordinate, the curve equation implies x^2 =
(y^2 - 1) / (d y^2 + 1) (mod p). Since d is a non-square and -1
is a square, the numerator, (d y^2 + 1), is always invertible
modulo p. Let u = y^2 - 1 and v = d y^2 + 1. To compute the
square root of (u/v), the first step is to compute the candidate
Josefsson & Moeller Expires August 26, 2015 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft EdDSA & Ed25519 February 2015
root x = (u/v)^((p+3)/8). This can be done using the following
trick, to use a single modular powering for both the inversion of
v and the square root:
(p+3)/8 3 (p-5)/8
x = (u/v) = u v (u v^7) (mod p)
3. Again, there are three cases:
1. If v x^2 = u (mod p), x is a square root.
2. If v x^2 = -u (mod p), set x <-- x 2^((p-1)/4), which is a
square root.
3. Otherwise, no square root exists modulo p, and decoding
fails.
4. Finally, use the x_0 bit to select the right square root. If x =
0, and x_0 = 1, decoding fails. Otherwise, if x_0 != x mod 2,
set x <-- p - x. Return the decoded point (x,y).
5.4. Point addition
For point addition, the following method is recommended. A point
(x,y) is represented in extended homogeneous coordinates (X, Y, Z,
T), with x = X/Z, y = Y/Z, x y = T/Z.
The following formulas for adding two points, (x3,y3) =
(x1,y1)+(x2,y2) are described in [Edwards-revisited], section 3.1.
They are strongly unified, i.e., they work for any pair of valid
input points.
A = (Y1-X1)*(Y2-X2)
B = (Y1+X1)*(Y2+X2)
C = T1*2*d*T2
D = Z1*2*Z2
E = B-A
F = D-C
G = D+C
H = B+A
X3 = E*F
Y3 = G*H
T3 = E*H
Z3 = F*G

Internet-Draft EdDSA & Ed25519 February 2015
5.5. Key Generation
The secret is 32 octets (256 bits, corresponding to b) of
cryptographically-secure random data. See [RFC4086] for a discussion
about randomness.
The 32-byte public key is generated by the following steps.
1. Hash the 32-byte secret using SHA-512, storing the digest in a
64-octet large buffer, denoted h. Only the lower 32 bytes are
used for generating the public key.
2. Prune the buffer. In C terminology:
h[0] &= ~0x07;
h[31] &= 0x7F;
h[31] |= 0x40;
3. Interpret the buffer as the little-endian integer, forming a
secret scalar a. Perform a known-base-point scalar
multiplication a B.
4. The public key A is the encoding of the point aB. First encode
the y coordinate (in the range 0 <= y < p) as a little-endian
string of 32 octets. The most significant bit of the final octet
is always zero. To form the encoding of the point aB, copy the
least significant bit of the x coordinate to the most significant
bit of the final octet. The result is the public key.
5.6. Sign
The imputs to the signing procedure is the secret key, a 32-octet
string, and a message M of arbitrary size.
1. Hash the secret key, 32-octets, using SHA-512. Let h denote the
resulting digest. Construct the secret scalar a from the first
half of the digest, and the corresponding public key A, as
described in the previous section. Let prefix denote the second
half of the hash digest, h[32],...,h[63].
2. Compute SHA-512(prefix || M), where M is the message to be
signed. Interpret the 64-octet digest as a little-endian integer
r.
3. Compute the point rB. For efficiency, do this by first reducing
r modulo q, the group order of B. Let the string R be the
encoding of this point.
Josefsson & Moeller Expires August 26, 2015 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft EdDSA & Ed25519 February 2015
4. Compute SHA512(R || A || M), and interpret the 64-octet digest as
a little-endian integer k.
5. Compute s = (r + k a) mod q. For efficiency, again reduce k
modulo q first.
6. Form the signature of the concatenation of R (32 octets) and the
little-endian encoding of s (32 octets, three most significant
bits of the final octets always zero).
5.7. Verify
1. To verify a signature on a message M, first split the signature
into two 32-octet halves. Decode the first half as a point R,
and the second half as an integer s, in the range 0 <= s < q. If
the decoding fails, the signature is invalid.
2. Compute SHA512(R || A || M), and interpret the 64-octet digest as
a little-endian integer k.
3. Check the group equation 8s B = 8 R + 8k A. It's sufficient, but
not required, to instead check s B = R + k A.
5.8. Python illustration
The rest of this section describes how Ed25519 can be implemented in
Python (version 3.2 or later) for illustration. See appendix A for
the complete implementation and appendix B for a test-driver to run
it through some test vectors.
First some preliminaries that will be needed.

8. IANA Considerations
None.
9. Security Considerations
9.1. Side-channel leaks
For implementations performing signatures, secrecy of the key is
fundamental. It is possible to protect against some side-channel
attacks by ensuring that the implementation executes exactly the same
sequence of instructions and performs exactly the same memory
accesses, for any value of the secret key.
To make an implementation side-channel silent in this way, the modulo
p arithmetic must not use any data-dependent branches, e.g., related
to carry propagation. Side channel-silent point addition is
straight-forward, thanks to the unified formulas.
Scalar multiplication, multiplying a point by an integer, needs some
additional effort to implement in a side-channel silent manner. One
simple approach is to implement a side-channel silent conditional
assignment, and use together with the binary algorithm to examine one
bit of the integer at a time.
Note that the example implementation in this document does not
attempt to be side-channel silent.
